Resumo(s)
At age 5, children with trisomy 21 have roughly 2 years of delayed motor development. We aimed to verify if children with trisomy 21 (AD) (N = 6, 7.67 ± 1.51 years) had a similar performance to children with a typical development (TD) (N = 37, 5.19 ± 0.40 years old), in a playful motor action (to spin on herself until she cannot get more). On average, ADs gave less laps, for less time, spending more time per rotation, but without significant difference. Of the AD, one-third fell and rose to continue to spin, one-third stopped and resumed spinning (with intervals of 2.05 ± .86 s). Three ADs performed the action counterclockwise and the other 3 in clockwise direction. The results support the hypothesis that AD can perform the activity of spinning, with DT (significantly) younger; allowing to AD momentary pauses and conditions for their physical security.
